Early Years Storytelling

Following Pie Corbett, Reception have been using story maps to retell the story of Handa's surprise. 

We read the story on Monday, created a map on Tuesday and now it's Friday we are able to tell the whole story without even opening the front cover! Here is the story map we created:


We also made up actions to go with the story to help us remember it through movement as well as through looking at the pictures.

To help with our story telling, we have been thinking of as many ways as possible to describe a banana, one of Handa's fruits that she takes to her friend Akeyo. These are the ones we came up with as a class:


We then had a go at making our own 'power word' board!
